Thought this warranted a discussion. On the "New Development" for College Station, something was filed for "1720 Harvey Mitchell Parkway South; A Preliminary Plan of 12 lots on approximately 72 acres."
Basically, the plan appears to show the southeast corner of Wellborn and 2818 fully developed, several lots (presumably restaurants), a lake, and a large central lot (presumably a large big-box). Balcones would be added as a stub off of Wellborn, with an eventual extension to Welsh (clipping the parking lot of First Baptist).
I've heard rumors that H-E-B was interested, but it seems like it would cannibalize the Holleman store (and if adding a third H-E-B in College Station to take the pressure off of it was an issue, then why didn't they renovate the former Albertsons?), but I have no idea what the plan actually is here.
